The geometric mean theorem, also known as the right triangle altitude theorem, is a result in Euclidean geometry relating the altitude drawn to the hypotenuse of a right triangle to the two segments that altitude creates on the hypotenuse.

Entity-backed identity for the statement-form enum value this theorem already carries, resolved to a mathematics concept by an explicit value-to-entity map (phase 3 bucket conversion, docs\design_entity_backed_browse_buckets_20260928.md). The statement-form fact itself stays on the theorem unchanged.
